Description
From 1980 to 2000, half the new housing in the United States was built in a development project governed by a neighborhood association.
More than 50 million Americans now live in these associations.
In Private Neighborhoods and the Transformation of Local Government, Robert Nelson reviews the history of neighborhood associations, explains their recent explosive growth, and speculates on their future role in American society.
Unlike many previous studies, Nelson takes on the whole a positive view.
Neighborhood associations are providing the neighborhood environment controls desired by the residents, high quality common services, and a stronger sense of neighborhood community.
Identifying significant operating problems, Nelson proposes new options for improving the future governance of neighborhood associations.
